This book, “Gold Warriors”, by Sterling and Peggy Seagrave is really, really good. It can be expensive because it is out of print, but I bought it long ago and it has been waiting in my “to read” pile. Affordable copies can still be found, I ordered one for a friend and apparently it is on “back order”.
Gold Warriors explains to us how the incredibly cruel and ambitious Japanese Army (during WW-2),
had much of it’s stolen loot (from all over Asia) trapped in the Philippines. They buried tons, billions and billions in loot, often caving in such tunnels on live POW’s and Japanese engineers.
Many loot tunnels were also booby-trapped, designed to kill anyone digging them up.
One can only guess at the level of cruelty of the Japanese Army, they may have even outdone the Nazis. Oh, and the book touches on “The Black Eagle Trust”, the German version of captured loot, not to be confused with the Japanese “Golden Lily” project.
Much of this loot was dug up by Ferdinand Marcos, the CIA, and American and Japanese gold bugs.
As we know, there is virtually no difference between the CIA and the gangsters they use.
Let’s not kid ourselves, this loot bankrolled the entire post-WW-2 world. It lined the walls of banks all over the Philippines, Japan, America and Europe. When you combine Golden Lily with The Black Eagle Trust, it is enough wealth to control the world.
The Seagraves have really done some great work to bring this and other similar stories to press. They had excellent sources, and were actually threatened and went into hiding. There were lots of murders connected to this gold.
This book was a slow read for me, with lots of underlining, annotating, and bookmarking. The bulk of the book is under 300 pages, but the footnotes contain lots of great information also.
If anything, I am learning that most people just don’t give a shit. I mean, just in the U.S. alone we hired a bunch of Nazis and Japanese fascists after WW-2, and the entire progressive line-up was assassinated in the 1960’s. There was Vietnam, Nixon was spied on and overthrown, Reagan had his Iran-Contra era complete with a privatized CIA, the U.S. has invaded all over the world, overthrown foreign governments and the sheep wonder why we are feared. Then there is Donald Chump. Sinclair Lewis Predicted Chump nearly 100 years ago. And the long-planned Covid and mRNA roll-out, the genocide in Gaza, on and on.
We already lost the whole damned country years ago.
Just a rant.
Anyway, “Gold Warriors” goes a long way to explain how the world really works. I highly recommend it, if you can get your hands on an affordable copy!
